Never had it until last Spring/Summer when I got bitten by a nasty tick that injected a parasite into my bloodstream that almost killed me. For several days the doctors couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me, so they kept trying different antibiotics hoping something would work. When I was finally properly diagnosed, I got another very long course of more but different strong antibiotics, along with anti malaria meds. Ever since then there is a constant buzzing in my ears. I hate silence, because that makes me focus on the obnoxious noise. I like to always have background noise, be it a radio, TV, fan, etc…. As long as there is some noise, It doesn’t bother me. Hunting, while silently sitting in my tree stand, the buzzing drives me nuts. Bring on the background noise.
